Changes needed for windows. This still does not work on and has not run on linux and the altix.
There are a few changes in names in the scons script, in particular _libs is used rather than _lib and _libs is always a list. By default on windows MSVC is used. The location of python is at C:\Program Files\python<version>, boost at C:\Program Files\boost and netcdf at C:\Program Files\netcdf.
